The theory uses the [[Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion]] and [[Graf's Addition Theorem]] to represent the potential in local coordinates.

[[Interaction Theory for Cylinders]] presents a simplified version for cylinders.  
  
−
The basic idea is as follows: The scattered potential of each body is represented in the [[Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion]] associated with the local coordinates centred at the mean centre position of the body. Using [[Graf's Addition Theorem]], the scattered potential of all bodies (given in their local coordinates) can be mapped to an incident potential associated with the coordiates of all other bodies. Doing this, the incident potential of each body (which is given by the ambient incident potential plus the scattered potentials of all other bodies) is given in the [[Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion]] associated with its local coordinates. Using the [[Diffraction Transfer Matrix]], which relates the incident and scattered potential of each body in isolation, a system of equations for the coefficients of the scattered potentials of all bodies is obtained.

[[kagemoto86]] developed an interaction theory for

vertically non-overlapping axisymmetric structures in water of finite
 
−
depth. While their theory was valid for bodies of
 
−
arbitrary geometry, they did not develop all the necessary

details to apply the theory to arbitrary bodies.
 
−
The only requirements to apply this scattering theory is
 
−
that the bodies are vertically non-overlapping and
 
−
that the smallest cylinder which completely contains each body does not
 
−
intersect with any other body.
 
−
In this section we will extend their theory to bodies of

arbitrary geometry in water of infinite depth. The extension of

arbitrary geometry was accomplished by [[goo90]].

The interaction theory begins by representing the scattered potential
 
−
of each body in the cylindrical eigenfunction expansion. Furthermore,
 
−
the incoming potential is also represented in the cylindrical
 
−
eigenfunction expansion. The operator which maps the incoming and
 
−
outgoing representation is called the diffraction transfer matrix and
 
−
is different for each body.
 
−
Since these representations are local to each body, a mapping of
 
−
the eigenfunction representations between different bodies
 
−
is required. This operator is called the coordinate transformation
 
−
matrix.

\subsection{Calculation of the diffraction transfer matrix for bodies
 
−
of arbitrary geometry}
 
−
 
 
−
Before we can apply the interaction theory we require the diffraction
 
−
transfer matrices <math>\mathbf{B}_j</math> which relate the incident and the
 
−
scattered potential for a body <math>\Delta_j</math> in isolation.
 
−
The elements of the diffraction transfer matrix, <math>({\bf B}_j)_{pq}</math>,
 
−
are the coefficients of the
 
−
<math>p</math>th partial wave of the scattered potential due to a single
 
−
unit-amplitude incident wave of mode <math>q</math> upon <math>\Delta_j</math>.
 
−
 
 
−
While \citeauthor{kagemoto86}'s interaction theory was valid for
 
−
bodies of arbitrary shape, they did not explain how to actually obtain the
 
−
diffraction transfer matrices for bodies which did not have an axisymmetric
 
−
geometry. This step was performed by [[goo90]] who came up with an
 
−
explicit method to calculate the diffraction transfer matrices for bodies of
 
−
arbitrary geometry in the case of finite depth. Utilising a Green's
 
−
function they used the standard
 
−
method of transforming the single diffraction boundary-value problem
 
−
to an integral equation for the source strength distribution function
 
−
over the immersed surface of the body.
 
−
However, the representation of the scattered potential which
 
−
is obtained using this method is not automatically given in the
 
−
cylindrical eigenfunction
 
−
expansion. To obtain such cylindrical eigenfunction expansions of the
 
−
potential [[goo90]] used the representation of the free surface
 
−
finite depth Green's function given by [[black75]] and
 
−
[[fenton78]].  \citeauthor{black75} and
 
−
\citeauthor{fenton78}'s representation of the Green's function was based
 
−
on applying Graf's addition theorem to the eigenfunction
 
−
representation of the free surface finite depth Green's function given
 
−
by [[john2]]. Their representation allowed the scattered potential to be
 
−
represented in the eigenfunction expansion with the cylindrical
 
−
coordinate system fixed at the point of the water surface above the
 
−
mean centre position of the body.
 
−
 
 
−
It should be noted that, instead of using the source strength distribution
 
−
function, it is also possible to consider an integral equation for the
 
−
total potential and calculate the elements of the diffraction transfer
 
−
matrix from the solution of this integral equation.
 
−
An outline of this method for water of finite
 
−
depth is given by [[kashiwagi00]]. We will present
 
−
here a derivation of the diffraction transfer matrices for the case
 
−
infinite depth based on a solution
 
−
for the source strength distribution function. However,
 
−
an equivalent derivation would be possible based on the solution
 
−
for the total velocity potential.

===The diffraction transfer matrix of rotated bodies===
 
−
 
−
For a non-axisymmetric body, a rotation about the mean

centre position in the <math>(x,y)</math>-plane will result in a
 
−
different diffraction transfer matrix. We will show how the
 
−
diffraction transfer matrix of a body rotated by an angle <math>\beta</math> can
 
−
be easily calculated from the diffraction transfer matrix of the
 
−
non-rotated body. The rotation of the body influences the form of the
 
−
elements of the diffraction transfer matrices in two ways. Firstly, the
 
−
angular dependence in the integral over the immersed surface of the
 
−
body is altered and, secondly, the source strength distribution
 
−
function is different if the body is rotated. However, the source
 
−
strength distribution function of the rotated body can be obtained by
 
−
calculating the response of the non-rotated body due to rotated
 
−
incident potentials. It will be shown that the additional angular

dependence can be easily factored out of the elements of the

diffraction transfer matrix.

==Numerical Results==
 
−
 
 
−
In this section we will present some calculations using the interaction
 
−
theory in finite and infinite depth and the full
 
−
diffraction method in finite and infinite depth.
 
−
These will be based on calculations for ice floes. We begin with some
 
−
convergence tests which aim to compare the various methods. It needs
 
−
to be noted that this comparison is only of numerical nature since the
 
−
interactions methods as well as the full diffraction calculations
 
−
are exact in an analytical sense. However, numerical calculations
 
−
require truncations which affect the different methods in different
 
−
ways. Especially the dependence on these truncations will be investigated.
 
−
 
 
−
===Convergence Test===
 
−
We will present some convergence tests that aim to compare the
 
−
performance of the interaction theory with the full diffraction
 
−
calculations and to compare the
 
−
performance of the finite and infinite depth interaction methods in deep water.
 
−
The comparisons will be conducted for the case of two square ice floes
 
−
in three different arrangements.
 
−
In the full diffraction calculation the ice floes
 
−
are discretised in <math>24 \times 24 = 576</math> elements. For the full diffraction
 
−
calculation the resulting linear system of equations to be solved is
 
−
therefore 1152. As will be seen, once the diffraction
 
−
transfer matrix has been calculated (and saved), the dimension of the
 
−
linear system of equations to be solved in the interaction method is
 
−
considerably smaller. It is given by twice the dimension of the
 
−
diffraction transfer matrix. The most challenging situation for the
 
−
interaction theory is when the bodies are close together. For this
 
−
reason we choose the distance such that the escribed circles
 
−
of the two ice floes just overlap. It must be recalled that the
 
−
interaction theory is valid as long as the escribed cylinder of a body
 
−
does not intersect with any other body.
 
−
 
 
−
Both ice floes have non-dimensionalised
 
−
stiffness <math>\beta = 0.02</math>, mass <math>\gamma = 0.02</math> and Poisson's ratio
 
−
is chosen as <math>\nu=0.3333</math>. The wavelength of
 
−
the ambient incident wave is <math>\lambda = 2</math>. Each ice floe has
 
−
side length 2. The ambient
 
−
wavefield is of unit amplitude and propagates in the <math>x</math>-direction.
 
−
Three different arrangements are chosen to compare the results of the
 
−
finite depth interaction method in deep water and the infinite depth
 
−
interaction method with the corresponding full diffraction
 
−
calculations. In the first arrangement the second ice floe is located
 
−
behind the first, in the second arrangement it is located
 
−
beside, and the third arrangement it is both
 
−
beside and behind. The exact positions of the ice floes
 
−
are given in table (tab:pos).

It is interesting
 
−
to note that the ice floe in front is barely influenced by the
 
−
floe behind while the motion of the floe behind is quite
 
−
different from its motion in the absence of the floe in front.

maximum difference of the solutions for example, but the results are

very similar.
 
−
 
 
−
It is worth noting that the finite depth interaction method
 
−
only converges up to a certain depth if used with the
 
−
eigenfunction expansion of the finite depth Green's function  (green_d).
 
−
This is because of the factor
 
−
<math>\alpha^2-k^2</math> in the term of propagating modes of the Green's
 
−
function. The Green's function can
 
−
be rewritten by making use of the dispersion relation  (eq_k)
 
−
\cite[as suggested by][p. 26, for example]{linton01}
 
−
and the depth restriction of the finite depth interaction method for
 
−
bodies of arbitrary geometry can be circumvented.

The number of propagating modes and angular decaying

components are free parameters in both methods. In
 
−
finite depth, the number of decaying roots of the dispersion relation
 
−
needs to be chosen while in infinite depth the discretisation of
 
−
a continuous variable must be selected.
 
−
In the infinite depth case we are free to choose the number of
 
−
points as well as the points themselves. In water of finite depth, the depth
 
−
can also be considered a free parameter as long as it is chosen large
 
−
enough to account for deep water.

</math></center>
 
−
In the following, the integration weights are chosen to be </math>h_m =
 
−
1/2\,(\eta_{m+1}-\eta_{m-1})<math>, </math>m=2, \ldots, T_R-1<math> and </math>h_1 =
 
−
\eta_2-\eta_1<math> as well as </math>h_{_{T_R}} =
 
−
\eta_{_{T_R}}-\eta_{_{T_R-1}}<math>, which corresponds to the mid-point
 
−
quadrature rule.
 
−
Different quadrature rules such as Gaussian quadrature
 
−
could be considered. Although in general this would lead to better
 
−
results, the mid-point rule allows a clever
 
−
choice of the discretisation points so that the convergence with
 
−
Gaussian quadrature is no better.
 
−
In finite depth, the analogous truncation leads to

−
In both cases, the dimension of the diffraction transfer matrix,
 
−
<math>\mathbf{B}</math>, is given by <math>2 \, T_H+1+T_R \, (2 \, T_K+1)</math>.
 
−
 
 
−
Since the choice of the number of propagating
 
−
modes and angular decaying components affects the finite and
 
−
infinite depth methods in similar ways, the dependence on these
 
−
parameters will not be further presented. Thorough convergence tests
 
−
have shown that in the settings investigated here, it is sufficient to
 
−
choose <math>T_H</math> to be 11 and <math>T_K</math> to be 5. Further increasing these

parameter values does not result in smaller errors (as compared

to the full diffraction calculation with 576 elements per floe).

We will now compare the convergence of the infinite depth and

the finite depth methods if <math>T_H</math> and <math>T_K</math> are

fixed (with the previously mentioned values) and <math>T_R</math> is varied. To be able to

compare the results, the discretisation of the continuous variable

will always be the same for fixed <math>T_R</math> and these are

shown in table (tab:discr).

weight is chosen to be 1.

Figures (fig:behind), (fig:beside) and (fig:shifted) show the convergence for arrangement 1, arrangement 2 and arrangement 3, respectively, for
 
−
the infinite depth method and the finite depth method with depth 2
 
−
(plot (a)) and depth 4 (plot (b)).
 
−
Since the ice floes are located beside each other
 
−
in arrangement 2 the average errors are the same for both floes.
 
−
As can be seen from figures (fig:behind), (fig:beside) and
 
−
(fig:shifted) the convergence of the infinite depth method
 
−
is similar to that of the finite depth method. Used with depth 2, the
 
−
convergence of the finite depth method is generally better than that
 
−
of the infinite depth method while used with depth 4, the infinite depth
 
−
method achieves the better results. Tests with other depths show that
 
−
the performance of the finite depth method decreases with increasing
 
−
water depth as expected. In general, since the wavelength is 2, a depth

of <math>d=2</math> should approximate infinite depth and hence there is no

advantage to using the infinite depth theory. However, as mentioned

previously, for certain situations such as ice floes it is not necessarily

===Multiple ice floe results===

We will now present results for multiple ice floes of different

geometries and in different arrangements on water of infinite depth.
 
−
We choose the floe arrangements arbitrarily, since there are
 
−
no known special ice floe arrangements, such as those that give
 
−
rise to resonances in the infinite limit.
 
−
In all plots, the wavelength <math>\lambda</math> has been chosen to
 
−
be <math>2</math>, the stiffness <math>\beta</math> and the mass <math>\gamma</math> of the ice
 
−
floes to be 0.02 and Poisson's ratio <math>\nu</math> is <math>0.3333</math>. The ambient
 
−
wavefield of amplitude 1 propagates in
 
−
the positive direction of the <math>x</math>-axis, thus it travels from left to
 
−
right in the plots.

Figure (fig:int_arb) shows the

displacements of multiple interacting ice floes of different shapes and

Introduction

This is an interaction theory which provides the exact solution (i.e. it is not based on a Wide Spacing Approximation). The theory uses the Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion and Graf's Addition Theorem to represent the potential in local coordinates. The incident and scattered potential of each body are then related by the associated Diffraction Transfer Matrix. Interaction Theory for Cylinders presents a simplified version for cylinders.

The basic idea is as follows: The scattered potential of each body is represented in the Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion associated with the local coordinates centred at the mean centre position of the body. Using Graf's Addition Theorem, the scattered potential of all bodies (given in their local coordinates) can be mapped to an incident potential associated with the coordinates of all other bodies. Doing this, the incident potential of each body (which is given by the ambient incident potential plus the scattered potentials of all other bodies) is given in the Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion associated with its local coordinates. Using the Diffraction Transfer Matrix, which relates the incident and scattered potential of each body in isolation, a system of equations for the coefficients of the scattered potentials of all bodies is obtained.

The theory is described in Kagemoto and Yue 1986 and in Peter and Meylan 2004.

The derivation of the theory in Infinite Depth is also presented, see Kagemoto and Yue Interaction Theory for Infinite Depth.

Equations of Motion

The problem consists of [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] bodies [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] with immersed body surface [math]\displaystyle{ \Gamma_j }[/math]. Each body is subject to the Standard Linear Wave Scattering Problem and the particluar equations of motion for each body (e.g. rigid, or freely floating) can be different for each body. It is a Frequency Domain Problem with frequency [math]\displaystyle{ \omega }[/math]. The solution is exact, up to the restriction that the escribed cylinder of each body may not contain any other body. To simplify notation, [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbf{y} = (x,y,z) }[/math] always denotes a point in the water, which is assumed to be of Finite Depth [math]\displaystyle{ h }[/math], while [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbf{x} }[/math] always denotes a point of the undisturbed water surface assumed at [math]\displaystyle{ z=0 }[/math].

The equations are the following

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} \Delta\phi &=0, &-h\lt z\lt 0,\,\,\mathbf{x} \in \Omega \\ \partial_z\phi &= 0, &z=-h, \\ \partial_z \phi &= \alpha \phi, &z=0,\,\,\mathbf{x} \in \partial \Omega_{\mathrm{F}}, \end{align} }[/math]


(note that the last expression can be obtained from combining the expressions:

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} \partial_z \phi &= -\mathrm{i} \omega \zeta, &z=0,\,\,\mathbf{x} \in \partial \Omega_{\mathrm{F}}, \\ \mathrm{i} \omega \phi &= g\zeta, &z=0,\,\,\mathbf{x} \in \partial \Omega_{\mathrm{F}}, \end{align} }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ \alpha = \omega^2/g \, }[/math])

[math]\displaystyle{ \partial_n\phi = \mathcal{L}\phi, \quad \mathbf{x}\in\partial\Omega_B, }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ \mathcal{L} }[/math] is a linear operator which relates the normal and potential on the body surface through the physics of the body.

The Sommerfeld Radiation Condition is also imposed.

Eigenfunction expansion of the potential

Each body is subject to an incident potential and moves in response to this incident potential to produce a scattered potential. Each of these is expanded using the Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion The scattered potential of a body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] can be expressed as

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi_j^\mathrm{S} (r_j,\theta_j,z) = \sum_{m=0}^{\infty} f_m(z) \sum_{\mu = - \infty}^{\infty} A_{m \mu}^j K_\mu (k_m r_j) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\mu \theta_j}, }[/math]

with discrete coefficients [math]\displaystyle{ A_{m \mu}^j }[/math], where [math]\displaystyle{ (r_j,\theta_j,z) }[/math] are cylindrical polar coordinates centered at each body

[math]\displaystyle{ f_m(z) = \frac{\cos k_m (z+h)}{\cos k_m h}. }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ k_m }[/math] are found from [math]\displaystyle{ \alpha }[/math] by the Dispersion Relation for a Free Surface

[math]\displaystyle{ \alpha + k_m \tan k_m h = 0\,. }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ k_0 }[/math] is the imaginary root with negative imaginary part and [math]\displaystyle{ k_m }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ m\gt 0 }[/math], are given the positive real roots ordered with increasing size.

The incident potential upon body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] can be also be expanded in regular cylindrical eigenfunctions,

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi_j^\mathrm{I} (r_j,\theta_j,z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} f_n(z) \sum_{\nu = - \infty}^{\infty} D_{n\nu}^j I_\nu (k_n r_j) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_j}, }[/math]

with discrete coefficients [math]\displaystyle{ D_{n\nu}^j }[/math]. In these expansions, [math]\displaystyle{ I_\nu }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ K_\nu }[/math] denote the modified : Bessel functions of the first and second kind, respectively, both of order [math]\displaystyle{ \nu }[/math].

Note that the term for [math]\displaystyle{ m =0 }[/math] or [math]\displaystyle{ n=0 }[/math] corresponds to the propagating modes while the terms for [math]\displaystyle{ m\geq 1 }[/math] ([math]\displaystyle{ n\geq 1 }[/math]) correspond to the evanescent modes.

Derivation of the system of equations

A system of equations for the unknown coefficients of the scattered wavefields of all bodies is developed. This system of equations is based on transforming the scattered potential of [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] into an incident potential upon [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] ([math]\displaystyle{ j \neq l }[/math]). Doing this for all bodies simultaneously, and relating the incident and scattered potential for each body, a system of equations for the unknown coefficients is developed. Making use of the periodicity of the geometry and of the ambient incident wave, this system of equations can then be simplified.

The scattered potential [math]\displaystyle{ \phi_j^{\mathrm{S}} }[/math] of body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] needs to be represented in terms of the incident potential [math]\displaystyle{ \phi_l^{\mathrm{I}} }[/math] upon [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ j \neq l }[/math]. This can be accomplished by using Graf's Addition Theorem

[math]\displaystyle{ K_\tau(k_m r_j) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\tau (\theta_j-\varphi_{jl})} = \sum_{\nu = - \infty}^{\infty} K_{\tau + \nu} (k_m R_{jl}) \, I_\nu (k_m r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu (\pi - \theta_l + \varphi_{jl})}, \quad j \neq l, }[/math]

which is valid provided that [math]\displaystyle{ r_l \lt R_{jl} }[/math]. Here, [math]\displaystyle{ (R_{jl},\varphi_{jl}) }[/math] are the polar coordinates of the mean centre position of [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_{l} }[/math] in the local coordinates of [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_{j} }[/math].

The limitation [math]\displaystyle{ r_l \lt R_{jl} }[/math] only requires that the escribed cylinder of each body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] does not enclose any other origin [math]\displaystyle{ O_j }[/math] ([math]\displaystyle{ j \neq l }[/math]). However, the expansion of the scattered and incident potential in cylindrical eigenfunctions is only valid outside the escribed cylinder of each body. Therefore the condition that the escribed cylinder of each body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] does not enclose any other origin [math]\displaystyle{ O_j }[/math] ([math]\displaystyle{ j \neq l }[/math]) is superseded by the more rigorous restriction that the escribed cylinder of each body may not contain any other body.

Making use of the eigenfunction expansion as well as Graf's Addition Theorem, the scattered potential of [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] can be expressed in terms of the incident potential upon [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] as

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi_j^{\mathrm{S}} (r_l,\theta_l,z) = \sum_{m=0}^\infty f_m(z) \sum_{\tau = - \infty}^{\infty} A_{m\tau}^j \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} (-1)^\nu K_{\tau-\nu} (k_m R_{jl}) I_\nu (k_m r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_l} \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}(\tau-\nu) \varphi_{jl}} }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ = \sum_{m=0}^\infty f_m(z) \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} \Big[ \sum_{\tau = - \infty}^{\infty} A_{m\tau}^j (-1)^\nu K_{\tau-\nu} (k_m R_{jl}) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}(\tau - \nu) \varphi_{jl}} \Big] I_\nu (k_m r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_l}. }[/math]

The ambient incident wavefield [math]\displaystyle{ \phi^{\mathrm{In}} }[/math] can also be expanded in the eigenfunctions corresponding to the incident wavefield upon [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math]. Let [math]\displaystyle{ \tilde{D}_{n\nu}^{l} }[/math] denote the coefficients of this ambient incident wavefield in the incoming eigenfunction expansion for [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] (cf. the example in Cylindrical Eigenfunction Expansion).

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi^{\mathrm{In}}(r_l,\theta_l,z)= \sum_{n=0}^\infty f_n(z) \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} \tilde{D}_{n\nu}^{l} I_\nu (k_n r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_l}. }[/math]

The total incident wavefield upon body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_j }[/math] can now be expressed as

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi_l^{\mathrm{I}}(r_l,\theta_l,z) = \phi^{\mathrm{In}}(r_l,\theta_l,z) + \sum_{j=1,j \neq l}^{N} \, \phi_j^{\mathrm{S}} (r_l,\theta_l,z) }[/math]

This allows us to write

[math]\displaystyle{ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} f_n(z) \sum_{\nu = - \infty}^{\infty} D_{n\nu}^l I_\nu (k_n r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_l} }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ = \sum_{n=0}^\infty f_n(z) \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} \Big[ \tilde{D}_{n\nu}^{l} + \sum_{j=1,j \neq l}^{N} \sum_{\tau = -\infty}^{\infty} A_{n\tau}^j (-1)^\nu K_{\tau - \nu} (k_n R_{jl}) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}(\tau - \nu) \varphi_{jl}} \Big] I_\nu (k_n r_l) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\nu \theta_l}. }[/math]

It therefore follows that

[math]\displaystyle{ D_{n\nu}^l = \tilde{D}_{n\nu}^{l} + \sum_{j=1,j \neq l}^{N} \sum_{\tau = -\infty}^{\infty} A_{n\tau}^j (-1)^\nu K_{\tau - \nu} (k_n R_{jl}) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}(\tau - \nu) \varphi_{jl}} }[/math]

Final Equations

The scattered and incident potential of each body [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta_l }[/math] can be related by the Diffraction Transfer Matrix acting in the following way,

[math]\displaystyle{ A_{m \mu}^l = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} B_{m n \mu \nu}^l D_{n\nu}^l. }[/math]

The substitution of this into the equation for relating the coefficients [math]\displaystyle{ D_{n\nu}^l }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ A_{m \mu}^l }[/math]gives the required equations to determine the coefficients of the scattered wavefields of all bodies,

[math]\displaystyle{ A_{m\mu}^l = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \sum_{\nu = -\infty}^{\infty} B_{mn\mu\nu}^l \Big[ \tilde{D}_{n\nu}^{l} + \sum_{j=1,j \neq l}^{N} \sum_{\tau = -\infty}^{\infty} A_{n\tau}^j (-1)^\nu K_{\tau - \nu} (k_n R_{jl}) \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}(\tau -\nu) \varphi_{jl}} \Big], }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ m \in \mathbb{N} }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ \mu \in \mathbb{Z} }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ l=1,\dots,N }[/math].
